Micromachining center handles complex components

Methods Machine Tools Inc. has introduced the Yasda YMC 430 Ver. II, a new micromachining center suitable for delivering the precise manufacturing and high surface finishes required on small, complex features in components and dies/molds in industries such as medical and semiconductor.

Features include linear motor-driven controlled axes, a highly rigid structure, a 40,000-RPM spindle, and 3- or 5-axis capabilities. The unit achieves linear positioning and circularity accuracy of less than 1 micron, the company reports.
